Suggest Remedies For White Bumps On Shoulders, Neck And Scalp
deep white bumps (does not look like milium, although that is the last diagnosis). been biopsied 4 times. no treatment proven effective. does not itch . still spreading years later. started as one bump on back of neck. spread to shoulders back and sides of neck and scalp.tried a chemical peel and trenitoin - bumps just reappeared next to where they had been removed. I am told it is benign but it is taking over my body. any natural treatment I can try?

Hello,
From the description, I agree with your doctor that it can be milium.
I suggest to send me a photo for further evaluation.
There is not a specific cure to treat milia but you can start off with an over-the-counter salicylic acid, glycolic acid product.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
